Answer:

Many active genes are found in euchromatin, because proteins involved in transcription can easily access these regions of DNA. (Ans. D)

Explanation:

Euchromatin: It is a form of chromatin which is lightly packed opposed to heterochromatin, which is densely packed. The presence of euchromatin usually reflects the cell are transcriptionally active in nature, which means they are actively transcribing DNA to mRNA.

The DNA is present in eukaryotic cells is arranged in complex comprising proteins and genes. These complexes are known as chromatin, and they exist in 2 forms euchromatin is also known as beads on a string structure and heterochromatin.

Euchromatin, because of the resemblance between a necklace of beads connected through a string and the nucleosomes connected with the help of linker DNA. After that, the euchromatin is consequently leaves the linker DNA exposed so that it can be transcribed. So, this way DNA and RNA polymerase as well as other proteins can access the DNA.

Answer:

B. Many active genes are found in euchromatin, because proteins involved in transcription can easily access these regions of DNA.

Explanation:

Euchromatin is the loosely coiled chromatin and is capable of undergoing the process of transcription. On the other hand, heterochromatin is the highly coiled and compacted chromatin present in its inactive state. Active genes are associated with more loosely packed chromatin, which is the euchromatin. This is due to the fact that the DNA in euchromatin is not tightly packed which in turn allows its interaction with a transcription factor. The tightly packed DNA of heterochromatin cannot interact with proteins requires for gene expression.

For the same insolation, order these regions from "highest absorption to lowest."
son4ous [18]
Insolation is the amount of solar energy that is incident on the surface of the earth. For the same insolation, water bodies tend to absorb the most heat as water has a high heat capacity and so do grasslands. Areas such as desserts and glaciers do not absorb high amounts of insolation due to which these areas exhibit extreme, inhabitable environments. The order becomes:
The Atlantic Ocean
A marshy wetland
Nevada desert
Polar ice caps

How are animal cells and protozoa similar?
Semenov [28]
Protozoa are single-celled eukaryotes that share some traits with animals. Like animals, they can move, and they are heterotrophs. That means they eat things outside of themselves instead of producing their own food

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Option (d).

Explanation:

Anagyrine is ab alkaloid that is mainly responsible for the crooked calf syndrome. This chemical effects have been tested on the cattle, goats and sheep.

The researchers has found that anagyrine can work as a teratogen. This chemical can cause birth defects in an individual. The angyrina when ingested by woman causes birth defect during early pregnancy.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
